Our story is both unique and fascinating.

The Selmer family traces its roots back to the 18th century

rural Lorraine region of France with Johannes Jacobus Zelmer.

Enlisting in the French army provided a means of moving families

from the country to the city.

For three generations Zelmer men served in the same regiment,

while the boys, too young to be soldiers, played in the band.

Jean-Jacques Selmer (son of Johannes Jacobus), in addition to

changing the spelling of the family name, ascended to the rank of drum major.

The military afforded great opportunities for education and travel.

When Charles-Frederic Selmer (son of Jean-Jacques) died in 1878 he left sixteen children,

five surviving to adulthood. Of these, Henri and Alexandre graduated

from the Paris conservatory as accomplished clarinetists.

Henri went on to perform in the famed Garde Republicaine band and the Opera Comique.

By the early 1900s Henri had opened shop at Place Dancourt in

Paris to meet the demand for his handmade reeds and mouthpieces.

Soon repair work and customizing led to the manufacturing of clarinets.

From 1895 to 1910, Alexandre Selmer served as principal clarinetist with the

Boston Symphony Orchestra, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, and the

New York Philharmonic Orchestra. At the turn of the century,

a small retail store was opened in New York City for selling the family wares

. Selmer clarinets prospered after winning a gold medal at the Saint Louis exposition of the 1904 Worlds Fair.

In 1918 Alexandre returned to Paris to assist Henri in their growing

family business, leaving an employee, George Bundy,

the rights to distribute Selmer products in the United States.

HistoryWelcome to Conn-Selmer, the leading manufacturer and distributor of musical instruments and accessories. The current company includes a portfolio of individual companies or brands that represent innovation, entrepreneurship, and a focus on musical excellence. The Selmer Company, which was comprised of brands such as Vincent Bach, Selmer, Emerson, Ludwig, Musser, and Glaesel was a leader in American craftsmanship with operations based out of Elkhart, Indiana.

In 1995, Selmer took ownership in the Steinway Piano Company to create base of legendary brands focused on the highest quality and reputation for musical performance and artistry. In 1998, the Selmer Company and Steinway Musical became a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange

In 2002, the Selmer Company merged with United Musical Instrumentsto form Conn-Selmer. Like the Selmer Company, United Musical Instruments was built from brand legacies such as C.G. Conn, King, Benge, Armstrong, Artley, and Scherl and Roth. In 2005, the Conn-Selmer Company acquired the G.Leblanc Corporation. This brought another family of brand names such as Leblanc, Vito, Holton, Martin, and Yanagisawa into the largest US full-line manufacturer of band and orchestra instruments. In 2013, Conn-Selmer and Steinway changed from public companies to

private ones when Paulson and Co became the new owner.

As the industry has evolved, Conn-Selmer has been focused on two fundamental bases for each of these brands. The focus on US manufacturing and the highest quality standards associated with this position can be seen in instruments produced in Elkhart, Indiana, Cleveland, Ohio, Eastlake, Ohio, Monroe North Carolina, and LaGrange, Illinois. An unwavering support for music education and advocacy for the arts can be seen through leadership by Dr. Tim Lautzenheiser and the Conn-Selmer Division of Education.
